    Hi, my husband ran the disney marathon in 09, I was thinking of tackling a small race myself in 2013. also thought about entering 1 with my daughter which will b 4-5 then. was wondering what race would u recommend 4 someone who does not run & is fun 4

    Hi Casey!  That's great that you are thinking about doing a runDisney race.  The runDisney events are designed for runners (and walkers) of all levels, so you will have no problem finding a race.
    You can go to the runDisney website to look at the race weekend schedule.  Every single race weekend offers Kids Races and also Family Fun 5K's.  The Kids Races vary by age, and would be perfect for your daughter to do.  Or you could both do the Family Fun 5K.  That is 3.1 miles long, which may be a bit long for your daughter, but it is a very relaxed event and most families end up walking at least a portion of the race. 
    My boys have done the Kids Races and the 5K's. 
    Let me know if you have specific questions about any of the race weekends.  I think you will find that each one has a lot to offer!
